Installing the Avid Board Set
This section describes the specifics for reliable hardware configuration
of Avid products on the IBM 6868 system, and covers only those
options that might be physically installed in PCI device slots.
There are no step-by-step procedures for the installation, but the
sections are placed in the order you should follow to complete the
installation.
The installation is explained in the following key sections:
• Before You Start the Installation
• Determining the Proper System Skew
• Revision Levels
• Removing the AGP Graphics Board
• Moving the Adaptec 29160LP SCSI Controller Board
• Installing the Optional PCI Disk Controllers
• Installing the Avid Boards

Avid now ships a new Meridien display controller board, EDC4. The
new display controller board has EDC4 labeled on the top of the
metal PCI bracket (see Figure 4-9). You can see the metal PCI bracket
externally at the rear of the system. The previous display controller
boards have no label and need a different driver than the EDC4.
Drivers for the EDC4 and other display controller boards ship with
the Avid software. Installing the correct software is explained in
“Installing the Display Controller Board Driver” on page 7-7.
